SHOPPING, THEN CRAFT GROUP

 

*sigh*, since Stew's been home from work on 'sick leave', I think I've been to the supermarket twice as often as I usually go.

We are going again today!  He has a list.

Mostly the stuff he usually gets on the weekend.

I think he's going to have a go at walking around the supermarket himself too.  

ABOVE:  He's graduated to only using one crutch around the house now.  AND he's doing a few more things for himself.

Last night he got his own 'dinner', fruit, yoghurt and left over cream from lunch.  Nice.  I'll have him cooking us a three course meal before ya know it.  (JJ)

ABOVE:  I forgot this photo of Miss Lily from yesterday!  She slings her handbag over her arm and declares she's off to 'work'.  So damn cute.

ABOVE:  I got all three Braid Runners pieced together yesterday.  I will start quilting them after I get home from Craft Group.

I shall piece together another Braid Runner while at Craft Group, that's about all I like to do on BABY Brother. 

So, that's today's plans.

Catch ya later.

ONWARD...

Well, I finally failed in the 'good, caring wife' duties.

I had a terrible night's sleep, and slept in after waking a gazillion times overnight. 

When I finally got up, I realised Stew had made his own breakfast, opened the curtains and all that first thing in the morning shit.

OMG I am so bad!  I didn't even last two weeks being the dutiful wife.

MUST.  DO.  BETTER.

We shall be going out soon to do that shopping, and Stew needs to get a follow up x-ray of his knee as well.  So, we shall do that.

3.30 pm, and it has been a busy day again.  We did a small grocery shop, Stew was only on his feet for probably 20 minutes.  Then he had his x-ray and I took him home again.

Then we had lunch, a Chicken/Pasta salad with coleslaw on the side.  It was OK.  

Then I left him to it and went to Craft Group, where I sewed up this Braid Runner:

ABOVE:  YES, it is very busy.

And yes, it's not straight on the edges, but once I've trimmed it, quilted it and put binding on, it will be just fine.  😊  And again, the colours are not 'true' either.  

ABOVE:  A close up of the kiwi birds fabric, which I've not used before.  

Now that I'm home, I'm going to be a lazy arse for a while.  In a couple of hours I'll think about getting us some dinner.  Something light.

Right, I've now got four Braid Runners on the go, and ready for quilting etc.  I'll start on them tomorrow, I've run out of energy to even think about doing them now.  And they will take quite a few hours to do.

So, the evening stretches ahead.  I've just watered all the outdoor pots and lawns.  Tick Tick.

Time to sign off for the day.

Catch ya tomorrow.
